This audiobook follows the path of Mitchell's semiautobiographical alter ego Harry Block. He navigates through the highs and lows of a job he hates, impending parenthood, the trials and misadventures of redemption, and a rather long and successful in alcoholism. He does this all the while dealing with the struggles of the written word and writer's block (no pun intended).

Adam is the first human being all alone in the Garden of Eden. He has everything he needs, but he sure is lonely. One morning he awakens to find his body flayed open. Could it be kidney thieves? No, God has stolen a rib to make him a companion. Why he couldn't have just made Eve out of dirt like Adam was, is beyond him. Adam and Eve are living in relative peace in Paradise until trouble comes to the Garden in the form of a snake.

Mark Twain nos narra las historias del Jardín de Edén. Los divertidos diarios de Adán, el padre legendario, y Eva, la madre de la raza humana. Las relaciones entre el sexo femenino y el masculino ¿han sido siempre las mimas? Twain nos responde a esta pregunta presentándonos a nuestro padre Adán constantemente importunado por la curiosidad de su compañera que, con su particular modo de ver las cosas, pone e impone nombre a todos los lugares, seres y animales el jardín.

PR extraordinaire Blake Hamner (the n is silent) put off his honeymoon for his big break: joining a major political campaign for president. Now, the "Hammer" struggles to make time for his marriage as crisis communications manager for Our Leader, who, since taking power, has become increasingly mad and totalitarian.

What if the greatest story ever told had been just a little... funnier? Adam wakes up in Eden with no clothes, no answers, and a sneaking suspicion that paradise has some serious design flaws. Then God creates Eve from one of his ribs – and she's intelligent, witty, and completely unimpressed by his constant sarcasm.

Mark Twain wrote and had opinions about many things, including religion and Biblical matters. This selection of sketches compiled from Europe and Elsewhere is fun and insightful.

Un relato en el que Mark Twain pone de manifiesto sus hilarantes y poco ortodoxas opiniones sobre la religión. «Me gusta una buena historia bien contada. Por esta razón, a veces me veo obligado a contarlas yo mismo». Con estas palabras Mark Twain, según Hemingway, el padre indiscutible de la literatura estadounidense, defendía sus cuentos, hábilmente tramados, de inventiva inagotable y personajes inolvidables.
